Winter is the peak season for tourists travelling to Murshidabad. October to March is the time when hotel prices rise because the weather is pleasant. The most important festivals of Bengal, Durga Puja and Kali Puja fall during this period. During Durga Puja, the whole city is decorated with Pandals and idols of Maa Durga everywhere. One can enjoy the mela during that time. Diwali and Holi are other festivals celebrated with great zeal in the city. The temperatures do not fall below 5 degrees, which means you can have a day out shopping the exclusive Baluchari sarees, exploring the various palaces, masjids and gardens that are the main attractions. Charak Puja falls during March or April and November onwards, the travel influx increases steadily as this is the peak season of travel. Source
